It's kinda weird that they even "announced" a console a year and a half away; who even does that in the tech world anymore? Trying to get ahead of the Neo/Pro I guess.
Ok.... I wasn't implying it would be comparable to a high-end PC, but it's a significant jump from the current Xbox One. The Scorpio is going to be $500-$600 US. How much does a very high-end PC cost? $1500-$2000.

I bought a decent gaming PC around 4 years ago and did a lot of gaming on PC. I could spend money upgrading the video card, but I would probably have to upgrade my CPU as well. That might mean I have to upgrade the main board, not sure. I don't have a 4K monitor so I would have to upgrade to that to take full advantage of the video card. I have a SSD hard drive but it's only 128GB so probably should get a bigger one. Too annoying and more money that I want to spend at the moment.
